Underweight
People of your height typically weigh more. Adding weight through exercise and healthy eating may be good for you.
Healthy Weight
You're in a healthy weight range for your height. You're lowering the risk of heart disease and diabetes that comes with too much weight.
Overweight
Your weight is higher than it should be for good health. You are more likely to suffer from
diabetes
and to die from heart disease.
You can reduce the risk of serious disease by lowering your weight through
diet and a more active lifestyle.
Obese
Your health is at risk. Excess weight directly contributes to serious lifetime illness and early death. Your doctor
can help you find ways to lose weight and stay healthy, or check out our basic guide to reaching a healthy weight.
